All rights reserved 2 JVBL Mission Statement The mission of the Journal of Values-Based Leadership (JVBL) is to promote ethical and moral leadership and behavior by serving as a forum for ideas and the sharing of ―best practices.‖ It serves as a resource for business and institutional leaders, educators, and students concerned about values-based leadership. The JVBL defines values-based leadership to include topics involving ethics in leadership, moral considerations in business decision-making, stewardship of our natural environment, and spirituality as a source of motivation. The Journal strives to publish articles that are intellectually rigorous yet of practical use to leaders, teachers, and entrepreneurs. In this way, the JVBL serves as a high quality, international journal focused on converging the practical, theoretical, and applicable ideas and experiences of scholars and practitioners. The JVBL provides leaders with a tool of ongoing self-critique and development, teachers with a resource of pedagogical support in instructing values-based leadership to their students, and entrepreneurs with examples of conscientious decision-making to be emulated within their own business environs. Call for Papers The JVBL invites you to submit manuscripts for review and possible publication. The JVBL is dedicated to supporting people who seek to create more ethically and socially-responsive organizations through leadership and education. The Journal publishes articles that provide knowledge that is intellectually well-developed and useful in practice. The JVBL is a peer- reviewed journal available in both electronic and print fora. The readership includes business leaders, academics, and students interested in the study and analysis of critical issues affecting the practice of values-based leadership. The JVBL is dedicated to publishing articles related to: 1. Leading with integrity, credibility, and morality; 2. Creating ethical, values-based organizations; 3. Balancing the concerns of stakeholders, consumers, labor and management, and the environment; and 4. Teaching students how to understand their personal core values and how such values impact organizational performance. In addition to articles that bridge theory and practice, the JVBL is interested in book reviews, case studies, personal experience articles, and pedagogical papers. If you have a manuscript idea that addresses facets of principled or values-based leadership, but you are uncertain as to its propriety to the mission of the JVBL, please contact its editor. While manuscript length is not a major consideration in electronic publication, we encourage contributions of less than 20 pages of double-spaced narrative. As the JVBL is in electronic format, we especially encourage the submission of manuscripts which utilize visual text. Manuscripts will be acknowledged immediately upon receipt. All efforts will be made to complete the review process within 4-6 weeks. 3 Review Process The JVBL seeks work that is clearly written and relevant to the Journal‘s central theme, yet imbued with analytical and intellectual excellence. In this respect, the editorial review board shall consist of both leading scholars and respected high-level business leaders. All manuscripts undergo a two-stage review process: 1) The editor and/or his or her representative will conduct a cursory review to determine if the manuscript is appropriate for inclusion in the JVBL by examining the relevance of the topic and its appeal to the Journal‘s target readership. The editor may: a) reject the manuscript outright, b) request submission of a revised manuscript which will then be subject to a comprehensive in-house review, or c) forward the manuscript for review pursuant to the provisions of the following paragraph. 2) The editor will send the manuscript to three reviewers consisting of at least one scholar and one practitioner. The third reviewer shall be chosen at the editor‘s discretion, depending upon the nature of the manuscript. Once reviews are returned, the editor may: a) accept the manuscript without modification, b) accept the document with specific changes noted, c) offer the author(s) the opportunity to revise and resubmit the manuscript in response to the reviewers‘ and editors‘ comments and notations, or d) reject the manuscript. To be considered publishable, the manuscript must be accepted by at least one of each type of reviewer.

  • Academic Publishing and Scientific Integrity: Case Studies of Editorial Interference by Taylor & Francis
    Kahr et al. Journal of Scientific Practice and Integrity. 1(1). DOI: 10.35122/jospi.2019.848394 Research Article | Commentary Academic Publishing and Scientific Integrity: Case Studies of Editorial Interference by Taylor & Francis Bart Kahr,i Leemon B. McHenry,ii Mark D. Hollingsworthiii Abstract Editorial independence is a bedrock principle of academic publishing. The growing domination of academic publishing by large, for-profit corporations threatens this independence. There is alarming evidence that large companies too often serve their own business interests and those of powerful clients rather than serving the scientific community and the general public. This evidence includes the publication of infelicitous commercial science and concealing scientific misconduct. We present two case studies in which the UK-based publisher Taylor & Francis interfered in the editorial process by blocking publication of legitimate criticism that had been reviewed and approved for publication by its specialized editors. The integrity of science depends in part on the transparency and intellectual honesty of all stakeholders. The widely- acknowledged inadequacies of English libel law are reviewed as context for some of Taylor & Francis’s fearful decisions. Introduction the editorial independence of the editor, and it should not interfere in the assessment, selection, or editing Editorial independence, the license of editors to approve of journal articles. The relationship between the a contribution for publication free from the influence of editor and the publisher, sponsoring society, or journal owners, advertisers, or media company directors, is a owner should be based on trust and respect.1 bedrock of journalism and academic publishing.

  • Whitehead's Panpsychism As the Subjectivity of Prehension
    Whitehead's Panpsychism as the Subjectivity of Prehension Leemon B. McHenry LEEMON B. McHENRY is Visiting Scholar in the Department of Philosophy, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90024. 1. Introduction Whitehead's concept of prehension is undeniably the master principle of his process metaphysics. It is the central function of a creative universe whereby the many past occasions become a novel one. In my view, the concept of pre­ hension is Whitehead's most original and distinctive contribution to metaphy­ sics. It is also the very idea that prevents most contemporary philosophers from understanding or appreciating his thought. In this paper, I wish to explore the idealist context in which the concept of prehension becomes intelligible. While I do not deny that important influences from physics and biology helped Whitehead frame his idea, I contend that pre­ hension only makes sense as a concept of panpsychistic idealism. Here I use the term 'idealism' not in the sense of nature dependent on mind, but rather nature understood fun.damentally as sentient experience. 1 This appears to be White­ head's intention when, introducing the term 'prehension' for the first time in Science and the Modern World, he says: For Berkeley's mind, I substitute a process of prehensive unification. In order to make intelligible this concept of the progressive realization of natural occurrences, considerable' expansion is required, and confrontation with its actual implications in terms of concrete experience. (SMW 69) Whitehead also draws analogies with Leibniz's monads and Spinoza's modes in order to clarify how his novel idea of prehension squares with the notion of individual perspectives interlocked in a system of internal relations.

  • Replies and Reflections
    Replies and Reflections Nicholas Maxwell I am absolutely delighted by the contributions to this volume. The variety of topics discussed is astonishing. I am immensely grateful to all the contributors for having taken the trouble to write these fascinating and challenging essays. I am enormously grateful to Leemon McHenry for all the work he has put into editing the book, and grateful too to Michael Krausz for having suggested the book in the first place, and initiated the project to produce it. The philosophical problem which first came to haunt me was the problem of how we can understand our human world embedded in the physical universe, aspects of which are discussed by Jeremy Shearmur, Mat Iredale and David Hodgson in Part II. Then I became embroiled in trying to understand how we could make rational sense of science, the topic of essays by Karl Rogers and Leemon McHenry in Part III. Once I had arrived at the idea that, because the basic aims of science are profoundly problematic, science needs to try to improve its aims and methods as it proceeds, I was led to generalize this idea to all of academic inquiry and, in a way, to all of life. Thus did I stumble across my “from knowledge to wisdom” argument, which is discussed in diverse ways by Copthorne Macdonald, Steve Fuller, John Stewart, Joseph Agassi, Margaret Boden and Donald Gillies in Part I. I propose to discuss the essays in this order, as it seems to be a reasonably coherent way of unfolding the themes under scrutiny.

No mention is made of the Cambridge philosopher James Ward (1843-1925), author among others of two significant series of Gifford Lectures entitled Naturalism and Agnosticism (1899) and The Realm of Ends: Pluralism and Theism (1911). Focussing mainly on this latter work, the paper examines some rather striking similarities in the philosophies of the two thinkers, arguing that some of Whitehead’s conceptual breakthroughs are already anticipated by Ward’s attempt to develop a revised version of Leibniz’s monadism as a pluralistic yet spiritualistic alternative to Bradley’s absolute idealism. From a philosophical point of view, the aim of the paper is to evaluate the motivations leading both philosophers towards a panpsychic conception of the ultimate nature of reality. 2 John Lango Professor Department of Philosophy Hunter College 695 Park Avenue New York, NY 10021 USA Phone: 212-769-4022 e-mail: [email protected] Whitehead's Philosophy of Time Abstract: Presumably, process philosophy takes time seriously.
